This command resets the device.
The reset command is a priority command that resets the device even when another command
is being executed. When the reset command is received while executing another command,
the device quits the execution of that command.

Resetting the device clears the print buffer area, and the magnetic read/write buffer and
initializes the mechanism. Initializing the mechanism causes the device to discharge cards
residing therein.
(2) Communication setting command
This command makes the default settings relating to communications.
The setting is stored internally with the non-volatile memory, even when the power is cut.
When the power is turned on again, the stored contents are handled as the default parameters.
Important
Be careful that settings are not different from the system side communication conditions.
There is a limit to the number of times the non-volatile memory can be used.
Issuing this command is limited to when starting up the system, and frequent use should
be avoided.
